Tesi Switch - NELLI V2 16MM EVH Style Push Button Guitar Kill Switch
£17.99
About
I was really impressed by these kill switches after inspecting/using one, they have a couple of useful features which I'll touch on in a moment, that make them great for guitar mods. I am now a UK authorised dealer for Tesi Switch and you'll find a great selection of their kill switches here in stock at the Home of Tone!
The Tesi Switch NELLI V2 is the same size and feel as the EVH Wolfgang switch. The switches feature an internal resistor so that it can be connected to any 9V battery without fear of instantly burning out the bulb. Please note, the BLACK switch does not have an internal LED.

Installation
These are nice and easy to install, but if you have any concerns about installing I highly recommend having a skilled guitar repairer to carry out the install for you to save any issues caused. Some useful fitting instructions can be found HERE. Or alternatively, if you are local, then I am more than happy to carry out professional installation here. Please check out the Guitar Services page HERE
When used with active pickups and/or a stereo output jack (not included) the Tesi NELLI does not require the included on/off rocker switch.
